Nationals' Stephen Strasburg (hand) set for season-ending surgery

Washington Nationals pitcher Stephen Strasburg has been placed on the 60-day injured list, ending his 2020 season.

What It Means:

Strasburg is scheduled to have surgery on his right wrist to fix his carpal tunnel and will not return this season. The surgery is set to take place next week and Washington's goal is for Strasburg to return healthy for the next spring training.

Strasburg will close his 2020 season with just 5 innings pitched, resulting in a 10.8 ERA and 1.80 WHIP with 2 strikeouts, and 1 walk.
